All About Us ❋ Sirius & Emma
The familiarity of the Slytherin's fingers intertwined with Sirius's left an accustomed mark, his whisper pulling away from Emma's ear. As his hand tangled within the girls, his mind surely followed, losing itself within the different emotions and thoughts that were tearing him apart inside. A slight tug was all that he needed for her to follow him, as he took her on a journey through the corridors of the Castle toward the seventh floor. The boy needed a distraction to take him away from the pain that settled in his heart, and although hurting somebody like Emma was the last thing he wanted to do, he knew that she would be the perfect candidate. After hearing those three words leave the girl's mouth, Sirius fell into a pit of confusion. He loved her, he always would, but it was always uncertain whether it was the same context as what Emma's heartfelt words really meant. He peeked behind his shoulder, a small smirk playing upon his lips.
He hadn't smiled in weeks, let alone truly felt a sense of happiness, but looking back the the curiosity and hope that filled the girl's eyes created a spot of warmth within his heart. After moments of silence, Sirius lead Emma to the Grand Staircase. He watched as they moved from platform to platform, mimicking each other's movements. As the stairs reached their feet, the boy stepped forward landing on the bottom step. Sirius's gaze made it's way back to Emma's, causing him to absent-mindedly stroke the side of her cheek. His tongue poked from his mouth and stealthily licked his lips, craving another kiss from the beauty standing before him. The Castle was silent and he was unsure why, but it only let him focus even more intently on the Slytherin girl standing before him. For once, Sirius didn't feel the need to pretend that he didn't care, because with Emma Vanity, he only found it impossible.
